EVERY ONCE in a WHILE, a RILLY LOUSY-LOOKING MOVIE ALL BUT ESCAPES OUR NOTICE. BUT THANKS to OUR VIGILANT FORUM MEMBERS, STANDING OVATION WON'T SUFFER THAT FATE...

WRITTEN and HELMED by the RAZZIE® "WINNING" DIRECTOR of the AWFUL 1988 E.T. KNOCK OFF MAC & ME, (WHOSE D.G.A. CARD SHOULD'VE BEEN REVOKED for THAT FILM ALONE) OVATION LOOKS LIKE an ATTEMPT to REPLICATE (i.e. RIP OFF) the SUCCESS of BOTH HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL and GLEE, BUT with NO BUDGET, a NO-NAME CAST and a NO-TALENT DIRECTOR.

OPENING in a MERE 600 THEATRES, OVATION IS LIKELY to REMAIN UNSEEN by EVEN OUR MEMBERS -- BUT, BOY IT SURE LOOX WORTH a LOOK-SEE BEFORE NOMINATING BALLOTS ARE FILLED OUT at YEAR's END!

AS a FOOTNOTE: IF JAMES BROLIN for THIS (as EXECUTIVE PRODUCER of a WORST PICTURE NOMINEE) and JOSH BROLIN in JONAH HEX (as WORST ACTOR) WERE BOTH NOMINATED, THEY'D BE the FIRST EVER FATHER/SON RAZZIE® NOMINEES..

I think it has more to do with the fact that both sequels and remakes are just excuses for studios to milk the success of a previous "original" movie for all it's worth, rather than bothering to make another "original" movie...

The Four Horsemen of the Moviepocalypse: uncalled for sequels/remakes/reboots, 3-D surcharges, untalented "celebrities", and anything with Michael Bay's name attached to it.

This is by the dude who thoroughly ripped off E.T. to create the longest, most awful infomercial in cinematic history, Mac and Me? I can't believe Stewart Raffill has directed 13 movies since, although I can believe they were all mediocre or worse. . . .

Yeah, based on the reviews, this movie looks like it rips off Glee, but even more, it comes across as Jersey Shore trying to imitate Glee. And, in case there's any confusion, no, this is not good. . . .
